"Finally here! Hmph, coming to question my transgressions!"
Hearing the words of Sun Kuidou, the head of "Fangcun Mountain", in the sky, Fang Han's heart stirred, and a cold sneer subsequently surfaced on his face. Golden Immortals were indeed terrifying, but he was not very afraid. If it came to a fight, relying on his "Way of Ending", entering the Fallen Evil Valley, with the cooperation of favorable timing and geographical position, a Golden Immortal might not necessarily be able to kill him, and he could totally deal with it around.
As for the Tianquan Sect saying they would take the matter on themselves, he did not believe it at all. Even if what the other party said was true, it was unreliable.
Fang Han would not bet his life on the promise of any sect or any person.
Was his own life only worth a single promise? Even the promise of an Immemorial Heavenly Lord was not one ten-thousandth as precious as his own life.
"That brat named Heng Budong, quickly come out to see me. Such great audacity, unexpectedly daring to bully and humiliate a disciple of my Fangcun Mountain, and furthermore, he held the identity of a Heavenly Court Inspector."
Rolling voices, like thunder sweeping the world, crashed toward the people of the Tianquan Sect. There was a soul-shaking power that frightened people to the point of breaking their gallbladders.
That Sun Kuidou, standing up, was a tall cultivator, wearing a blood-colored cape, as if dyed in fresh blood. His body seemed to possess boundless might, towering between heaven and earth, proudly laughing at the soaring clouds. Anyone who met his gaze would tremble with fear and feel their liver and gallbladder split.
His gaze swept back and forth over everyone inside the "Xi Map", and finally locked onto Fang Han.
"Father."
Wang Pian, hiding behind Wang Yan, stood out, seemingly reminding her father to protect Fang Han. This time, to obtain the treasure in the Fallen Evil Valley, she had also come along, because having received Fang Han's help and later under her father's infusion, she had also cultivated from a Mystic Immortal to the realm of a Half-step Golden Immortal Almighty, having the qualifications to come here and obtain the treasure.
"Daughter, rest assured, little friend Heng Budong is an esteemed guest of our Tianquan Sect. A mere Sun Kuidou wanting to threaten my Tianquan Sect is simply a joke." The head of the Tianquan Sect patted his daughter's shoulder: "That Fangcun Mountain does not have a High-grade Immortal Artifact. For some unknown reason, they actually dare to challenge me like this, blatantly coming to Quan Prefecture. If we don't teach them a lesson, and other major sects follow suit in the future, wouldn't that result in total chaos?"
"Brat, it's you who crippled our sect's Chen Yuansheng. So audacious, daring to act like this. A monstrous disaster has already descended upon your head. Come out quickly, kneel down and accept death, and you can still spare yourself some pain."
Within Fangcun Mountain, a Half-step Golden Immortal Almighty roared like a thunderbolt, pointing at Fang Han: "Is the Tianquan Sect really going to protect this brat?"
"Exactly, this little friend Heng Budong is an esteemed guest of our Tianquan Sect. With my Tianquan Sect here, who dares to touch him?" The Tianquan Sect master sneered continuously: "Fangcun Mountain, Sun Kuidou, disregarding the rules and coveting our Quan Prefecture's treasure is one thing, but you dare to ask my Tianquan Sect for a person? I'd like to see who dares!"
"Is that so?"
A leisurely voice carried over from a distance.
Another patch of golden rosy clouds appeared in the northern sky. A kingdom quietly condensed into shape. Within that kingdom, countless important figures began to appear, all of them Half-step Golden Immortal Almighties. Sitting upright in the very center of the kingdom was a Daoist, with a three-strand long beard floating behind his head, and an aura of stateliness between his brows. Surprisingly, he was also a Peerless Golden Immortal.
"Head of the Shenwei Sect!"
The Tianquan Sect master's face changed slightly.
Another great Golden Immortal figure had appeared, bringing out the sect's full strength. It was the master of that Ouyang Jun whom Fang Han had crippled.
"The Shenwei Sect pays its respects to the Tianquan Sect." As soon as the master of the Shenwei Sect appeared, his eyes also swept over Fang Han's body: "This time, my Shenwei Sect came not for the treasure of the Fallen Evil Valley, but to seek justice for my disciple. As long as you, the head of the Tianquan Sect, hand over the perpetrator, I will leave immediately."
"Two sects, disregarding the rules, entering Quan Prefecture, are you bullying my Tianquan Sect because you think we have no one?" The Tianquan Sect master stood in strict formation: "Back then, your two sects used schemes, communicating with the Heavenly Court, to let your disciples seize the position of a Heavenly Court Inspector, and even planted them in Quan Prefecture, nothing more than for the Ancient Spring of Life of my Tianquan Sect, and the treasure of this Fallen Evil Valley. Furthermore, those three disciples even once had abnormal thoughts toward my daughter. I, this seat, considered the harmony between sects; otherwise, I would have personally struck them dead long ago. Now that they provoked a formidable figure and were directly crippled, keeping their lives is already good enough. Li Luowei, I am not unaware of your character, yet you shamelessly say you did not come for the treasure. Save such lies to coax a three-year-old child. We are all world-shaking Peerless Golden Immortals, eternal and unconstrained. Saying these hypocritical words, I feel embarrassed for you!"
Li Luowei was, naturally, the master of the Shenwei Sect.
That Daoist with the three-strand long beard floating behind his head became angry from embarrassment after being called out by the Tianquan Sect master, and he roared: "Wang Yan, do you really want a war to start between the two sects?"
"War it is! This time, the vitality of the Fallen Evil Valley's treasure has changed. My Tianquan Sect originally had the intention to fight to the death and seize the treasure. Whoever dares to snatch the treasure from us will be killed without pardon!"
The Tianquan Sect master revealed sharp fangs and claws.
"Well said!"
Fang Han cheered.
"Oh? Tianquan Sect master, acting so fierce, what fortuitous encounter did you obtain? Do you think you have broken through realms, comprehended the laws of 'Ancestor', advanced to an Ancestral Immortal, and can sweep across our many sects, hence such arrogance and tyranny? Let me tell you, if you don't hand over the killer today, your Tianquan Sect will be exterminated! The entire sect, top to bottom, not even a chicken or a dog will be left."
Boom!
A brutal voice transmitted from the sky in the south, and another crimson kingdom appeared. Within the kingdom, there was a crimson Golden Immortal, extremely violent, with a gloomy complexion, filled with raging fire, seemingly able to burn people to death at any moment.
"Sovereign of the Guyuan Sect, Gu Meng!"
This person was surprisingly the master of Huang Ziqi, whom Fang Han had crippled, and also the sovereign of a major sect, a figure belonging to the level of an overlord in the Celestial Realm. Any expert whose cultivation reached the stage of Golden Immortal was equivalent to an overlord.
Three great Golden Immortal overlords, sect leaders, "Fangcun Mountain" Sun Kuidou, "Shenwei Sect" Li Luowei, "Guyuan Sect" Gu Meng, all led sect experts to appear, wanting to demand Fang Han and pressure the Tianquan Sect.
The pressure from the three great Golden Immortals turned heaven and earth upside down. If they could descend into the secular world, great worlds would be shattered one by one. Even the Immortal Realm, where time and space were highly stable, now had its vitality fluctuating violently. Surging waves of vitality, like volcanic eruptions, could tear apart Void Immortals and damage Great Luo Laws.
However, influenced by the power of the three Golden Immortals, that evil mist within the Fallen Evil Valley unexpectedly began to become dense, and it showed a trend of expanding outward.
"Exactly, it is us three major sects. Jointly coming this time is not to oppress your Tianquan Sect, but just wanting to seek back justice. You first hand over that Heng Budong, and then compensate each sect with a King-grade Immortal Pill to restore the injured vitality of our three genius disciples. This matter will then be settled, and we can also equally divide the treasure of this Fallen Evil Valley together."
That Shenwei Sect master Li Luowei waved his large sleeve, appearing sanctimonious.
"If not, with our three sects joining forces, I do not believe your Tianquan Sect can ward us off!"
"If the Tianquan Sect stops us this time, we will instantly exterminate the sect!"
The three great Golden Immortal overlords jointly forced the palace.
"Kill, kill, kill, kill! …"
All the experts and important figures of the three major sects roared wildly, forcing closer step by step. The suppressive force grew thicker and thicker, simply suffocating.
All the experts of the Tianquan Sect changed their complexions.
"Sect Master, if the three sects truly join forces, our Tianquan Sect is no match. Moreover, the Guyue Sect has not appeared; perhaps they are hiding in the dark watching the show. Now the three sects are forcing our hand, are we truly going to start a war with the three major sects?" Several trusted elders began to transmit divine thoughts to the Tianquan Sect master, Wang Yan.
The situation was currently severe, hanging by a single thread.
"Hahaha, hahaha!" All of a sudden, Fang Han erupted into a burst of wild laughter, "Shenwei Sect, Fangcun Mountain, Guyuan Sect, there is no cause for criticism if you come at me. I just crippled your disciples, so what? If you have the capability, enter the Fallen Evil Valley to hunt me down, and let me see if you can kill me! Tianquan Sect master, you need not worry either. I have never let anyone take on matters for me. Whoever provokes me will definitely not meet a good end."
"Whoosh!"
His body once again flew out of the "Xi Map", directly plunging into the Ten Thousand Transformations Evil Mist of the Fallen Evil Valley, instantly vanishing without a trace.
"Sir!" The eldest miss Wang Pian called out, but it was too late. She dared not rush out of the Xi Map and could only watch helplessly as Fang Han disappeared.
"An extraordinary person!" Many elders consecutively sighed with feeling.
"Let's move! Enter the Ten Thousand Transformations Evil Valley first and talk later. Once we secure the treasure of those King-grade Immortal Pills and advance a few Golden Immortals, this seat will show these three major sects some color."
Wang Yan roared furiously, stimulating the Xi Map, and also charged into the black mist of the Fallen Evil Valley. Immediately, the black mist sensed the threat and became even denser, even beginning to corrode time and space, creating countless honeycomb-like spatial and temporal mazes. The entire Fallen Evil Valley was no longer as simple as a valley, but a grand universe, a massive maze containing countless evil kingdoms.
"Damnable! That person actually, single-handedly, broke into the Fallen Evil Valley. Hunt him down!"
The masters of the three major sects let out a shout of rage, leading the experts in their sects to form three grand arrays, directly shaking the Ten Thousand Transformations Evil Mist, and penetrating deeply into it.
At this moment, Fang Han entered the Fallen Evil Valley first, and the Tianquan Sect, Shenwei Sect, Fangcun Mountain, and Guyuan Sect also entered immediately. The four groups of forces had vast imposing manners, but upon entering the Evil Valley, it was silent and soundless, without a single trace of movement leaking out, and not even the fluctuation of vitality could be felt inside.
This Fallen Evil Valley was like an incomparably massive evil beast, swallowing the four groups of forces.
Right after the four groups of forces entered, entirely black shadows of people leaping about appeared outside the Evil Valley. The attire of these entirely black shadows was actually identical to the assassins who assassinated the eldest miss. They all lingered outside the valley, waiting for the descent of important figures.
"Buzz!"
A burst of flickering, and yet more Golden Immortal overlords descended.
